Chapter 418 Colen suddenly smiled with relief


Chapter 418 Colon suddenly smiled with relief

The sound of swords breaking through the air and screams floated under the dark clouds.

The beaver flag representing Xiaochi City was broken on the ground, black smoke filled the sky, and the war horse fell sideways to the ground, letting out a painful whine.

Broken shields, bursting spears, hundreds of corpses and wailing wounded soldiers lay on the ground, and bright blood gathered on the ground to form a river and flowed into the Lacey River.

Perhaps because Mizam's previous order had an effect, the smoke on the battlefield dissipated a lot.

This allowed the militiamen and Salvation Army infantry present to see those terrifying beasts more desperately.

The extraordinary knights wearing heavy armor formed dozens of cavalry teams, with swords in their hands, galloping back and forth on the battlefield, chasing the fleeing Xiaochi City militiamen.

Not far away, a hundred knights of the order and their attendant knights were organizing their formation. Black smoke swept over their bodies, and their horses snorted violently.

Leaning under a tree, Baron Cologne's face turned pale due to the loss of color. His bloodshot eyes stared desperately at the bloody knight Arman.

People know that Arman is nicknamed Lingya because he is good at coaxing women.

But I never thought that the title would only be given to the most powerful knight, and not because he could coax women.

Under the leadership of the Lingya Knight, Koike City's army collapsed at the first touch, and dispersed amidst Coren's desperate roar.

Feeling the earth tremble, Coren, who had lost too much blood, reluctantly turned his head, only to see a group of Hotam County knights rushing past a group of militiamen who still had the morale to form a formation.

The wave of iron instantly knocked the militiamen to pieces, and the following knights wielded their long swords and slashed at these militiamen.

The standing militiamen were chopped down one after another, and fell heavily to the ground with their pale eyes open.

"Damn it, you freshmen!"

Colen managed to support his body, but almost tore the wound on his thigh. He gritted his teeth, grabbed a stone and threw it at the man who flew past. Knights.

The stone bounced past the horse's hooves, and the laughter of the knights hit Column, almost knocking him to the ground.

Column couldn't even catch up and curse.

His thigh was pierced by a lance, and his whole body was nailed to the roots of a beech tree by the road

The knight of the order who thrust his lance at him seemed to have noticed the feathers and tassels worn by Column, and did not kill him in order to capture him.

But Colen would rather he kill him. If he falls into the hands of the church, he doesn’t know how terrible the punishment will be.

But as a devout believer, he cannot commit suicide against his teachings, and he does not have the courage.

Colen can only place his last hope on the black hats who hold on at the end.

Only this legion still retains its organization. With the help of the mercenary knights of Xiaochi City, it withstood the impact of two groups of Hotam County knights.

These knights were forced to chase the militia instead of continuing to attack the phalanx.

On the battlefield where deserters were everywhere, the two legions of the Black Hat Army did not continue to form a horizontal formation rigidly, but were stacked on top of each other to form a large square formation that they were more familiar with.

Different from the large square formations of 50X50, the two legions of the Black Hat Army are just 10x10 square formations.

In the black smoke, there are many halberds, axes and spears in the phalanx, like a hedgehog. No matter which direction the extraordinary knights of Hotam County attack from, they can instantly adjust their stance and spear pointing.

Compared with the guards led by Mizam, they are more like the regular version of Dunjar's phalanx.

It's normal to be able to do this.

Although these black hats are new recruits, they are different from Horn's original batch of pure recruits. They are heavily trained soldiers. They were previously armored sergeants or elite night guards.

These "new recruits" are all selected from the best, which is equivalent to the top guards in Langsander County being integrated together. Although their armor coverage rate is low, their extraordinary rate exceeds half, and they have more or less the strength of several breathing techniques and extraordinary martial arts.

Because of this, this group of Black Hat Army recruits are actually equipped with a large number of axes, guns and halberds that are not used by the Salvation Army.

Coupled with the elite officers and key veterans of the Salvation Army, as well as Horn's generous full salary and farmland pension, the skeleton of this black hat recruit army was propped up.

But even these elite guards are still fighting and retreating. As long as they can retreat into the camp's vehicle array to form a vehicle fort, they can support the Salvation Army until they return.

Although many people are saying that the Salvation Army has given up on them, it may be because of excessive blood loss that Colon is easier to calm down.

Recalling Horn's strange orders and the Black Hat Army's obviously slowed down marching speed, he had a clear understanding in his heart. Master Shengsun was clearly using them as bait.

After eating this bait, there will always be a time to lift the line, just hold on for a while, hold on for a while...

"Let go, let go!"

"Okay, everyone divide the luggage. You go back to Castle Joan, and we go back to Xiaochi City, okay?"

"We can also use the car. "Fort."

"You saints and grandsons don't know where to run away. Get away!"

Colen turned to look behind him, but there was something in front of him. Black, almost fainted.

Small groups of Xiaochicheng militiamen gathered their strength, turned around and rushed into the Salvation Army's supply camp. After picking up their belongings, they tried to use the opposite method to charge towards the back of the Order Company for a surprise attack.

A few skitarii guarding the camp were still trying to persuade them, but they were stabbed through the heart by a Xiaochi City militiaman from behind.

Groups of militiamen rushed into the camp, searching among the boxes and sacks. If the Skitarii dared to block it, they would strike with their swords.

On the contrary, the mercenary knights of Koike City who were regarded as disloyal adhered to their professional ethics and were still helping the Black Hat Army to retreat slowly.

Before, Coren was still resenting Horn for using them as bait, but he stared at this scene for five seconds, and then suddenly smiled with relief.

In the future, if you can recruit rural soldiers, don't recruit urban soldiers. Colen's consciousness gradually became blurred. If he could survive, he must write this lesson into the military book passed down by his family.

Wait a minute, Colon, who was about to fall asleep, suddenly felt something was wrong. Why did the sound of horse hooves hitting the ground disappear.

Is it the Salvation Army? The Salvation Army is here? Coren struggled to open his eyes, raised his head and looked in the direction of the footsteps.

On the battlefield, all the cavalry suddenly no longer chased the scattered militiamen, but gathered together.

The black hat army retreated at a faster speed with the help of the mercenary knights of Koike City.

First, a flag pierced out of the black smoke and slapped the flagpole. The red ostrich feathers undulated with the horses.

The haggard and ferocious faces gradually became clear from the misty black smoke. The chainmail slid on the linen robe, and the straw sandals were stained with the mud of the Laixi River.

His vision gradually blurred, and Coren grinned miserably. He leaned against the zelkova tree and leaned the back of his head against the tree in despair.

The breeze blew away the black smoke, and tens of thousands of infantrymen from the Church Army formed twelve interlocking infantry phalanxes and walked out of the smoke with chaotic steps.

Except for the neat footsteps of the Black Hat Army, the battlefield was as quiet as death.
